Customer Reviews

Worth rereading

The McGurk mysteries, including this one, were great favorites of mine as a kid. I read them many times.

Review of the Nervous Newsboy

This book is definitely a great mystery for kids, since its main characters are kids our age, and the topic isn't too heavy. It has some humor in it, and the characters are easy to relate to. Also, the narrator shares his opinions with the reader, which makes you more empathetic with the characters. I'd definitely read more of the series.
